On this episode of the Seeing Eye Dogs Show, Harriet is joined by Puppy Development Trainer Steph Shaw to talk about managing excitability and promoting calm behaviour in our dogs and puppies. We talk about what excitability means in different ages and how to recognise when our dogs might need a little cool down with some tips on how to do that.

We are looking for puppy carers now so if you're keen to raise a puppy to hopefully become a Seeing Eye Dog we'd like to hear from you! It's an incredibly rewarding experience, with training provided. Carers need time, patience and love to give to a puppy, so if you want to commit to a year of puppy raising, we would love your help. We're looking for carers now in parts of Victoria, Queensland and New South Wales listed on our website. Get in touch to find out about volunteering with us or apply now via our website.
